Overview
Accelerate your sustainability journey
We’re doing business in an unpredictable world. Success requires new levels of resilience and agility, rooted in responsible practices that preserve our planet for future generations. Sustainability is now a strategic business imperative.
IBM can help you plan a sustainable and profitable path forward with open, AI-powered solutions and platforms and deep industry expertise that address your goals in five key areas: climate risk management, infrastructure and operations, supply chain, electrification, energy and emissions management, and sustainability strategy.
Climate risk management
Enable sustainable development and prepare for the unexpected with solutions that bring together your proprietary and third-party geospatial, weather and IoT data to predict and plan for critical weather events. Effectively respond with advanced analytics on your assets, employees and customers to ensure business continuity.
Resilient infrastructure and intelligent operations
Create more resilient, sustainable infrastructure and operations with intelligent asset management, monitoring and predictive maintenance. Extend the life of equipment, buildings, bridges, water lines and more. Incorporate sustainability considerations and use IoT data, AI and analytics to reduce operational downtime and costs, C02 and waste generated, and resources consumed.
Sustainable supply chains
Reduce waste and lower cost-to-serve by providing greater supply-chain visibility with up-to-the minute inventory views and performance insights. Minimize logistics-related emissions by optimizing fulfillment and delivery with advanced AI. Tackle complex Scope 3 emissions challenges by establishing product provenance, driving trust and transparency across your supply chain and empowering consumers with multi-enterprise business networks built on blockchain.
Electrification, energy and emissions management
Enhance grid efficiency, safety, reliability and resilience with intelligent asset management for energy and utilities. Implement smart metering to better understand actual resource use, lower costs and enhance services through automation. Capitalize on AI to reduce call center operation costs and improve experiences for every energy and utilities customer.
Sustainability strategy
Embed sustainability into your business and get the insights you need to operationalize at scale. IBM experts have deep domain and industry expertise to help you develop and implement the right strategies, operating models, intelligent workflows and technology innovation to achieve your sustainability goals.
